I don’t have any details yet, but it does look like it’s going to be releasing on the 19th now. I’m only just back from traveling for the past week–what a week!–so I’m still sorting through emails and the like, but I’m hoping this is all sorted out now, or about to be. Apologies again for the unexpected delay! I’ll be updating the topic description shortly with the new info.

In the meantime, those WIPs @Eric_knight pointed out do look really great. Do be sure to check them out while we wait! :slight_smile:

Does that happen often? Does it usually cause delays? This is my first experience publishing a CoG HG, and despite the research I’ve done, I’m aware of just how much I may be unaware of yet, haha.

I think it happens once in a while due to various reasons. I have seen several soon to be CoG or HG stories being pushed back at least once or twice each but I would assume that it’s up to the platforms that chooses the date to release like Apple, Google PS and Steam.

Well… just like @MichaelCrank said, it could be release date problem with multiple platform…

From my one year experience , by reading various comments and explanation in the forum… HG/CoG try to release their Titles simultaneously in every platform , mainly playstore, Appsstore and Steam … If one platform delay it, the entire release date may be delay … Google Playstore seems to be most lenient , they usually won’t cause problem with the initial release date, Appsstore and Steam seem to had a habit of holding out till last minutes before they decided to delay a title :slight_smile:

I see… that’s a bummer, but that would definitely explain the last-minute delay and lack of warning. Hopefully they’ve got it all worked out, or will in the very near future. Thank you, @MichaelCrank and @Eric_knight, for your insight! I appreciate it. :black_heart:

@Vae Fingers crossed! :crossed_fingers:

Well, damn. At least judging by the reviews on Android so far, Harbinger’s Head looks like it could be shaping up to be a bestseller. Congrats!

My only gripe with this one is that it was too short for my liking. But still a lovely and well-written gem!

Kinda shipping the mc and the dullahan hahaha. The best ending (imo, cuz it’s the only other one I’ve got so far) where you help him and willingly go with him after you die reminds me of the movie The Ghost and Mrs. Muir. I recommend that film for all you romantics out here.

Speaking of endings, this is probably tied with Tin Star with the fastest death that I’ve got in an HG. Well done! I’ll try to get the other endings later on.

Thank you! :smiley: Yeah, it’s a bit short compared to most CoG games I’ve played. But yes, certain choices do add a bit more content. :wink:

Thank you so much! It’s been a very pleasant surprise to see how well it’s been received so far. I mean, obviously I hoped for the best, but I try not to expect too much. I’m happy so many people seem to be enjoying it. :slight_smile:

I’m so glad you liked it! I haven’t seen The Ghost and Mrs. Muir but I’ll definitely have to check it out. :slight_smile:

This is certainly going on my favorites list! It’s extremely well-written, the characters are all three-dimensional and I came to love all of them (except the Red Men. Those guys were a-holes, lol). I felt very sorry for Sorcha and Maire in my first playthrough when I took the Dullahan’s side, so I helped the witches in my next playthrough but that ending was pretty sad. I’ll be honest, I do not hope for much from stories with a shorter word-count (mostly because I’m almost always left wanting more) but this surpassed my expectations and was a very satisfying read. Well done @storytellerkim!

I’ve been watching this ever since I accidentally stumbled on it on Dashingdon! I bought it as soon as I found out it came out. :smile:

I enjoy it so much. Short and sweet with a nice atmosphere. I think I’ll play it whenever I’m in the mood for a quick COG play. Thank you for your hard work, @storytellerkim!
